Our engineers specialize in replacing lost car or van keys all over the South-East. To give you an idea on how we operate- if you had lost car keys in Sunbury, we could be with you within ten minutes and have your car keys replaced within half an hour. All this at a fraction of the cost of the main dealer. Most dealers have to order your key in, which can take up to three weeks! They then require you to have your car towed to them so they can then carry out the necessary programming. Sounds like a whole lot of work, when you could have it done within an hour eh?

Most drivers don’t realise that legally, since 1998, manufacturers have had to install immobilisers on all cars and vans. Which means that your car key most likely has a very small chip inside it called a transponder. When you insert your key in the ignition, an aerial around the ignition reads the information held on your transponder. If this transponder has not been diagnostically programmed to your car, then it will not start. Our team carry the most advanced programming equipment to enable us to program keys to almost any car. Look out for our car locksmith in Staines, Hounslow, Heathrow and Surrey.

Not only are you stuck without your car but your dealer is probably telling you that it will be over two weeks before they can do anything about it.
